A PROLIFIC jewellery thief, wanted in connection with several burglaries across Elmbridge, is being sought by police.

Peter Sonny Martin O’Halloran, 33, is known to travel along the A3 and is suspected of multiple burglaries in the South East and Midlands.

He is described as 5ft10, of slim build and has a three-inch scar on his right forearm and a one-inch scar on his abdomen. O’Halloran is wanted for recall to prison having failed to comply with the conditions of his release.

Detective Sergeant Jeff Jones of Surrey Police said: “O’Halloran has evaded us for some time now and we firmly believe he is still active in targeting residential properties and stealing large values of jewellery across the south.

“We would appeal for anyone with information on his whereabouts to get in touch with Surrey Police, but we would also urge the public not to approach him themselves as he is obviously extremely keen to evade arrest.”

Anyone with any information should call the police on 0845 125 2222 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
